T-Shirt #033 - Car bomb

Car Bomb is an American mathcore band from New York, initially formed in 2000.

Car Bomb's style is marked by a highly experimental and extremely aggressive approach to metal. The band's music and riffs follow a very discordant style; chords and scales are not of the conventional variety, and have an almost random playing feel (as demonstrated in "Hypnotic Worm"). The band have cited their style to be influenced by Meshuggah, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Autechre, Coalesce, The Locust, Naked City, Metallica, Pantera, Slayer, Frank Zappa, Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Vinnie Colaiuta, Allan Holdsworth...

the drummer Elliot Hoffman keeps it all together with his amazing drumming ...
the concert at Pustervik 2019 was fantastic. 
Feels good to discover this band live!

T-shirt #032 ArchEcho

Arch Echo is the brainchild of five musicians who wish to push the envelope of modern music.  Their goal is to create music that is not only complex but accessible to the listener, delivered with passion and enthusiasm. And it SHOWS!
The concert in Gothenburg Sept 2019 was just awesome!
..from the start there was JOY and happiness of playing and being on stage. 
Even when they went on stage prepping and the background disco music was on, they played along to it while tuning and testing the sound ...and adding some solos fitting the disco tune :-)

Great guys that deserve to be well known: Joey Izzo // Keyboards, Adam Rafowitz // Guitar, Adam Bentley // Guitar, Richie Martinez // Drums, Joe Calderone // Bass

T-shirt #030 - Steve Hackett


old Genesis is what I really grew up on 
... with LP and headphones, I went to sleep every night
 
And from my prog symphonic rock days, I have since also entered the dark realm of Brutal Technical Death Metal via Progressive Metal
...but every time I start to listen to Genesis I am back again where it all started ...and I just love it!



the original Genesis: Live 1973

and Steve Hackett is still touring playing this amazing music...!
